Many of you have done DR testing at many levels and we are nearing our first DR test.
My manager asked me a question I had thought about, but really could only answer with......"we just won't have that data."
The question is, what do you do if you get your tapes to the DR site and discover that a necessary file (or many files) are missing? Bad tape, broken tape, etc.
What we don't want is for something crucial to kill our expensive and time consuming DR test. But my answer to my manager is what it is, short of having a primary volume rushed to the site.
What do you guys think about such a situation?
